For
the early authors of the Bible coming in from the
desert, Lebanon was a paradise of forests and gardens,
"of fabulous springs of water, a land flowing
with milk and honey."
Olive
trees, plantains, orange-trees, vines, apple-trees,
fig-trees, almond-trees, cherry-trees, strawberry
plants, and great expanses of forests of evergreen
oaks, larches, Mediterranean pines, and above all
giant cedars celebrated by the poets: 'To what shall
I compare your greatness? Surely, to a cedar of Lebanon
with noble branches, thickset needles and lofty trunk...
It was the envy of every tree in Eden, in the garden
of God' (Ezekiel XXXI).
'May I not go across and see this prosperous land
beyond the Jordan, this prosperous country of hills,
and Lebanon?' (Deuteronomy III, 25, Moses on Mount
Nebo); 'Come from Lebanon, my promised bride, come
from Lebanon, come on your way' (Canticle of the Canticles).
